Did anyone see the kid in the student section that looked like he passed out at a party and everyone there used a Sharpie to draw and sign their name all over his body and face?
Student section moved experience

- Start date
Partly that, but also partly because of the visiting team running through students if the field is stormed.
In a few years when I have my own kids down in Ames, posts like this are going to scare the hell out of me.
No...but we saw the guy in a Speedo (and nothing else) coming down the stairs during Juicy Wiggle. He wanted to go down to the cheerleaders on the field but security wouldn't let him. Warning: this is interpretation, because it's hard to see what's going on back in that corner.
You’re in for a rough go of it. One of my kids was at the snow bowl against KU wearing a freaking sweatshirt and no coat about four rows in front of the Teletubbies.
One of the students near top of upper deck appeared to be reading a book. They can’t have that much homework this soon.
We sit across from where they used to be and it was noticeably different yesterday. Will take some getting used to
A one-time thing for first game only to "re-establish a connection" between the band and the student section after the move.
But did the university really make that much more in donations by switching us considering our tickets are price locked for this season and the next two?
I could kind of understand if he wanted the students closer to their tailgating lots, but was it that much of a problem for them to walk from the southside of university to the northern part of the stadium?
Money would be in a couple years when the 1500 donations seats open up (price lock ends) and those people have to decide what to do. The other money is the fines for field rushing. Doing this basically keeps a fine from happening.
Donations? No, probably not.
Ticket prices? Definitely. He took the least costly seats and left them discounted while taking the student section and turning it into full tickets.
1. Long run it will increase ticket revenue.
2. It significantly mitigates field rushing incidents with visiting teams (which was basically forced by the conference).
3. Student section is closer to student tailgating lot.
4. Being in the corner noise from the student section should be more contained/amplified than the old open end location.
